I'm working on installing LibreOffice on Slackware. (I know Calligra. But I need very close to MS Word for work, and I know LO is adequate.)

So I started at the SlackBuilds page and noted the requirement for some other stuff. I got avahi, after discovering and getting libdaemon required by avahi. The other requirement for LibreOffice is jdk. That's where I'm stuck.

I downloaded and extracted https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.1/development/jdk.tar.gz.

Next I tried to download https://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u66-b17/jdk-8u66-linux-x64.tar.gz but I get an Oracle error page, https://download.oracle.com/errors/download-fail-1505220.html.

I tried working my way through the Oracle site to https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html, but there is more than one option. Which one of those do I need?

Thanks.
